WKJR, I think we've discussed this before: I had issues with my first A8 spontaneously changing modes while bike riding. With a lot of finagling in the tailcap area, I got it to quit but then I sold the A8 'package' to another cyclist that was just beginning night riding. I'm curious if you've used the BLF version yet on your bike and if you've had any issues with mode switch?
My light is in the Chicago area, I'll be getting it delivered to work on Monday.
I’ve actually tried banging mine about to induce a mode switch, won’t happen. No matter how hard I bang it about it stays locked in, you should be fine 8) I’m using keygos protected cells in mine if it makes a difference, but I can test with button top king kongs if you need?
Thanks, gords but no need. Thanks for the reply, whokilledJR is probably asleep right now. Glad to hear your copy works so well. I've missed this light since I sold it and can't wait to get the BLF Edition.
I have unprotected KK and Keeppower 26650 (protected KK) cells to try with it next week.
Thanks for the unintended tip on the keeppower 26650’s, I need some decent protected cells for a build, I was looking at the enerpower? Cells from Germany as they are hkj tested at 4500mah, and I want run time and output from this build.
Protected king kongs sound good to me though and I like my keeppower 18650’s
